We came here to see Mrs. Doubtfire!My only suggestion would be to have a longer break time (or faster employees) because the bathroom and concession lines were moving so slowly, most people who waited 15 minutes in line never had the chance to purchase any items or use the washrooms.Nata Bug1709873884 ★★★★★ Really amazing theater. Spacious and clean. Lines weren’t too long for anything (relatively speaking to other theaters). I would come back to watch more shows at this theater. Also, mrs. doubtful was so good! Highly recommendedSelma L.1709556478 ★★★★☆ This is a gorgeous theater with a great parking garage nearby. Basically any seat in the orchestra level is a good seat here. We've seen a few shows here...Jim Meacham1706386774 ★★★★★ Beautiful theatre, great to see a show, tough to get a drink or snack with full house, line ends up being long fast and they dont turn fast enough. Parking can be easy but have an exit plan if you park at one of the closer ones.Israel G.1706385849 ★★★★★ Great theater! It felt really special as soon as you walked in. We arrived about 30 minutes before showtime, grabbed some snacks, and headed to our seats....Nat Rose1706377301 ★★★★★ I came here last week for a Hamilton show with my mom. The door opened at 6:50 pm to let the guests start coming and settling in before the show. The seats were ready a few minutes past 7 pm. Before that, my mom and I grabbed snacks and drinks at the bar to munch on while waiting. The interior design of the whole theater was beyond spectacular. Before this theater was called Nederlander Theater, it was called the Oriental Theater, and you can see the iconic decor inside that relates to it. If you are disabled or can not use the stairs for medical reasons, a small elevator will take you to your assigned level. To my surprise, the seats are small but comfy.Please take advantage of Hamilton in downtown Chicago; it is a must-watch Broadway show. I thoroughly enjoyed the show (although I will not say the same for my mom; she's not much of a theater individual.)Natalya R.1705677763 ★★★★★ I came here last week for a Hamilton show with my mom.

It...Steven Brumfield1703800897 ★★★★★ Wonderful atmosphere. The decor of the theater is beautiful. Saw Hamilton, great times were had.The only thing that caught me off guard was the change in ticket prices from my pre-order tickets compared to the walk-in purchaser in front of me in line. Wasn't happy hear he paid half of what I paid for my tickets, sitting right next to me. Then again, filling seats is part of the game. Just research before you buy and enjoy the show. Would still enjoy seeing another show here.Loa Foreit1703178432 ★★★★★ Beautiful theatre! Everywhere I looked, there was a new detail that caught my eye. Definitely woeth going early enough to look around. Tight seating, but expected.mark paulauskas1702865570 ★★★★★ The actors and theatre itself was great reasonable prices, as expected lines are long but otherwise no big complaints. Friendly staff, fresh food and drinks, seats were comfortable, the bathroom floors weren't sticky and cleaned well. Well kept place and generally just a beautiful theatre. Great show, recommend.Beena White1702103628 ★★★★★ What a gorgeous theatre! You could spend hours admiring the architecture and general aesthetic. We went to see Hamilton and it was amazing. The show was remarkable, of course, but the acoustics in the theatre made the experience totally perfect.Joneice B.1701675155 ★★★★★ Love this theater. Between this and Cadillac for my favorite Chicago theater. As a member of Broadway in Chicago I get to see a lot of different shows. I...Ciara1701662124 ★★★★★ The performances were outstanding, with each actor and actress showcasing their incredible talents. Lin-Manuel Miranda's writing and music were truly remarkable, capturing the essence of Hamilton's life and the spirit of the American Revolution.The choreography and stage design were breathtaking, adding another layer of depth to the overall production. The attention to detail was evident in every scene, from the intricate costumes to the stunning set pieces. The lighting and sound design further enhanced the emotions and intensity of the performances, creating a truly immersive experience for the audience.But what truly made Hamilton stand out was the passion and dedication of the cast and crew. Their commitment to their roles and their craft was palpable, and it translated into a mesmerizing performance that kept the audience captivated from start to finish. The energy on stage was infectious, with the actors pouring their hearts and souls into each and every moment.Not only did Hamilton entertain and amaze, but it also educated and inspired. The show shed light on the life and legacy of Alexander Hamilton, a founding father who played a pivotal role in shaping the United States. It emphasized the importance of hard work, determination, and the pursuit of one's dreams.Jenna C.1697556854 ★★★★★ Beautiful, iconic theater right in the heart of Chicago. It used to be called The Oriental Theater, and you can still see that history in the ornate decor....Diana Cervantes1695945805 ★★★★★ Beautiful theatre! One of the most aesthetically pleasing theatres I’ve visited. I’ve seen Broadway musicals in NYC, Denver, San Diego & even saw The Lion King in Mexico City.Some have been very modern but this one has been my favorite. The pictures don’t do it justice.We had seats in the lower level. Ladies I recommend you walk down the stairs to the restroom the line goes by way fast as opposed to waiting for the one stall restroom in the lower level.We had an amazing experience here!By the way we watched Hamilton.You have to look up the history of this place. So sad what happened December 1903. A fire that killed 600.Katrina Marie N-A1692675434 ★★★★★ Another "not my first time here, but first Google Review" for this place! Watched many Broadway shows including and not limited to RENT, and most recently MJ The Musical (pictured here). The architecture remains exquisite and clean. Exterior and interior lighting look a bit more brighter and livelier than I remember; a good thing. Dress Circle seats are the best seats in my opinion. Highly recommend getting to the doors 20-30min earlier if possible. Check-in and security checks are thorough. Snacks and drinks for purchase on most levels. Less bathroom stalls in the upper areas so it may be a good idea to go to the basement-level during intermission. If you're catching a night show, I would recommend parking away from the Theatre District because parking lots fill up with theatre goers and elevator lines can be long. Would love to come back for another show!Delores M.1692353932 ★★★★★ Super amazing the ambiance was simple stunning and the performance was the best i've seen thus far in life and i'm42 years old. Invincible A Glorious...
Understanding the Seating Chart of Nederlander Theatre
👌 Best view seats:
The Orchestra center section, especially between rows A-V, offers a direct and unobstructed view of the stage, ensuring you don’t miss a single beat of the performance.
While the left and right sections of the Orchestra also provide great views, stick to seats that are not labeled as “obstructed” to ensure a complete stage perspective.
🎟️ For the ultimate luxury experience:
Consider the center of the Orchestra section, specifically rows A-M. These seats offer an unparalleled view, placing you at the heart of the action and immersing you fully in the “Hamilton” experience.
💰 Cheap yet good seats:
Seats labeled as “obstructed view” in the left and right sections of the Orchestra might be a steal. While they might block the extreme corners of the stage, many guests find these views better than expected, especially given the discounted price.
🪑 Comfort seats for the best legroom:
Opt for seats near the eight entryways in the Orchestra section. Not only do these provide easy access in and out, but they also allow for a quick restroom break during intermission, beating the long lines.
Avoid sitting in rows Z and ZZ to prevent distractions from the tech crew’s monitor lights.
If the stage’s top view matters to you, rows V-A are ideal, as the Balcony overhang does not obstruct them. However, if you don’t mind a slight obstruction of the top, rows P-O also offer good seating without breaking the bank.
Remember, each seat in the Nederlander Theatre offers a unique perspective, allowing you to engage with “Hamilton” in a way that’s special to you. Choose wisely and enjoy the show!
